Wi-Fi is now part of many modern heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, offering multiple benefits to the property-owner.

Wi-Fi lets you control the temperature remotely and alerts you to maintenance checkup dates and system problems. You can monitor everything from an app on your phone or other device.

 If your system doesn’t have Wi-Fi, you may be able to add it, depending on the brand of your HVAC. Call your HVAC contractor for assistance.

Wi-Fi aids

One benefit is the insight Wi-Fi offers into your energy usage. You can get a detailed breakdown of how and when energy is being expended; it gives you ideas on ways to save energy.

Another advantage: You can include your HVAC contractor in the loop and he can diagnose – and sometimes fix – problems remotely. This saves time and reduces problems.
